Yes, to clarify the previous responses:

In order to score for the Ambulance mission, there are two requirements at the end of the match

— The ambulance is in the yellow region. —  Rule 37 tells us that "In" means that any tiny bit of the Ambulance must be in the Yellow region to count ("barely "in" is considered "in")
— All the ambulance’s wheels are touching the mat.

Robot Game update 3 at http://www.firstlegoleague.org/challenge/robotgameupdates  tells us:

an object like the Ambulance "scoring in the Yellow zone" will not count as touching the Runway, and it won't ruin the team's Runway points.
